When I looked up podcasting on Google I went into Wikipedia to get the explanation for it. It made me extremely confused. So, according to web site podcasting-tools.com in the core “Podcasting is online audio content that is delivered via an RSS feed.” So after reading that I had to figure out what RSS feed meant. Well RSS is an abbreviation for Really Simple Syndication. According to Wikipedia “RSS is a web feed format that is commonly used to publish works that are frequently updated such as blogs, news headlines, audio and film.”



I read comparisons where people would say that podcasting is a YouTube for audio. He compares both, people now can be film starts when they do something good, interesting, or that gets people attentions on YouTube. We also have blogs where people can write and be journalists, writers, poets and so. Podcasting is the opportunity for people that want to work with radio to take the stage. With podcasting you have something similar do the radio, although the most mentioned differences are that you can choose what you want to hear and when. So, it is not like podcasting is schedules. People get together and create these bits and other people if they like the kind of work you are doing will download your shows and listen to it.

The cool thing about podcasting is that everyone can do it. All you need is a camera and microphones and also a computer and connections to the web. Do not forget podcasting is not only for I-pods, it works in all kinds of mp3 and computer devices. I really don’t feel like there is more for me to talk about when this movie explains everything so well.
